Yesterday's Everest arrival here was similar, albeit the cardboard box it was rattling around in was good and strong. But Hermes The Messenger was smiling down on me and the Model 9 arrived unscathed. Sometimes you just have to be grateful.
Sacramento SM3 didn't even have the benefit of a good box. I am grateful...I don't think any other typewriter I've had shipped has sustained any damage.
My favorite look, really - especially those dark green keys. You're here near me aren't you? I may be in - probably for a combo pack. Give me a deadline.

Well, this year. I had two incidents last year which were pretty sour. Things have changed, it seems.

Yeah, probably 5 to 10 minutes away. Deadline now set to 22 June.
